Bat Removal – Bat Control

Let’s get this out immediately – BATS are a protected species!!! It is illegal to harm a bat. If a company comes out and hand removes baby bats or collects bats in a bag and kills them…. REPORT THEM!

If you have bats in your attic, bats in your gable vents or bats in your soffits you are not alone. We can quickly get them out & keep them out! Bats are super territorial so just know if we keep them from coming into your house they should still stay in the area so you will not lose the benefit of them being around eating thousands of insects a day.

BAT REMOVAL & BAT EXCLUSION SERVICES

We get Bats OUT & KEEP them OUT! Our bat removal and exclusion methods are custom-tailored to suit each individual structure and situation. We utilize humane bat-removal techniques to ensure that NO bats are ever harmed in the process.

If the building has not been properly sealed, the bats will enter another opening in the same building. Bats only need an opening that is ¼ inch by 1½ inch, the thickness of a standard #2 pencil. Once we safely get the bats out, the exclusion work MUST be done to prevent the bats from returning to the roost site. After the exclusion work the bat guano clean-up is the next step.

BAT INSPECTIONS

We charge a flat rate fee for Bat Inspections on standard homes. Bat inspections are time consuming and are only done in the early morning hours during the summer so the Wildlife Technicians can safely enter an attic to get a grasp on the situation. They will inspect inside the attic and outside the home to establish how large the problem in, what is required to get the bats out, how much time will be required of us, materials & guano clean-up. From the inspection we will be able to provide you with a written proposal of the costs to get the bats out (exclusion work) and the Guano Clean-up. FREE INSPECTION if you hire us to perform the exclusion services.

AFFORDABLE BAT EXCLUSION

Since no two homes are alike, no two exclusion proposals are the same price. However, Bat Exclusion is far less expensive than squirrel or rat exclusion work since we have to exclude fewer places normally. Bat Exclusion is the act of using bat proof materials, devices and “METHODS” to keep the bats OUT. Some of the most common entry areas for bats are shown in the image and listed below:

We only use the highest quality animal-proof materials and devices, therefore, we are proudly able to guarantee that no critter will get past the areas where we have performed the exclusion services.

Just in case you were wondering why bats are beneficial —- Some species of bats, such as the Little Brown Bat, can eat 500 – 1000 mosquitoes in one (1) hour. So if we consider the night 8 hours, that can add up to 4000 – 8000 in a night.

If you build it they will come, and eat all the mosquitoes. The University of Florida has a couple of big bat houses near their campus in Down town Gainesville Florida. And they have greatly reduced the amount of night bugs like moths and mosquitos around the campus. Last I saw they had somewhere in the neighborhood of like 3 million bats in the bat houses. The first bat house got so full of bats they built another bat house. That's a lot of bats. The plans for building a bat house can be found on line of course. But they claim if you have a bug problem especially mosquitoes and have the room to build a bat house do it.
